In 2023, Heartland's total carbon emissions amounted to approximately 924,760 kg CO2e. This figure includes 361,670 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from direct operations, and 534,120 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompass indirect emissions such as business travel and employee commuting. The company also reported 28,970 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity. Comparing this to previous years, Heartland's emissions have shown a significant reduction from 1,156,340 kg CO2e in 2019 to 924,760 kg CO2e in 2023, reflecting a decrease of about 20% over this period. Notably, the company achieved a reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 489,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 361,670 kg CO2e in 2023. Despite these reductions, Heartland has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or formal climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint, it may benefit from establishing clearer climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations.
